Must be tough to be so terrified of everything. But I think we’ve learned our lesson about electing failed reality TV stars with no political experience. LA, let’s make sure this dude doesn’t make it past the primary.

Every woman who has ever been to a doctor is nodding their head as they read this.

Last year, it only took five of us showing up and making public comment at a city council meeting to get the council to restore library funding that the mayor’s office had cut. Just a few people showing up can make a huge difference.

Somebody knows something. Please help this family get justice.

Disabled people shouldn’t have to beg for healthcare, housing and food. They shouldn’t have to “prove they matter” to access services needed to survive. They shouldn’t have to explain their disability to every single person who asks. Disability is a minority group you can join any time.

Congrats to Julie K. Brown! She was awarded a #Pulitzer Prize special citation today for her groundbreaking reporting in 2017 & 2018 for the Miami Herald exposing Jeffrey Epstein's systematic abuse of young women and the justice system & powerful network of associates that protected him for years.

Disgraceful this is necessary Thank goodness for her

Google what 😭 Only in LA.

Louisiana police say a podcast helped them solve the decades-old rape and murder of a 16-year-old girl.

🚨 Heads up authors and reps in the publishing world 🚨 Scammers are posing as real, existing reps pretending to express interest in manuscripts. Two of my rep friends have been impersonated & one author friend received a fraudulent request from someone posing as a real editor. Be careful out there!

You don't need to meet decision-makers right now. You need to find your people - the ones who text you when they hear about an opening, who recommend you when they can't take a gig, who champion your work because they believe in it. That's a network. And you can build it authentically, today.

We reached out to Goldilocks for comment but did not hear back by the time of publication.

No fair the bodycam cuts out before we find out what game she was playing. Was it co-op? Hmu girl 😭 www.wlwt.com/article/west...

Here is an easy solution: Food stains are humiliating, as they suggest you're a little baby who can't feed themselves. Oil stains, such as those you'd get from working on your car, suggest you're tough, independent, and skilled. Thus, simply cover your food stains with used motor oil.

If you know Mac, you know his pups were his world. He went into extensive debt to try to save them and now in the midst of his grief is working himself to the bone to pay everything off. He needs community support right now. Please donate or share if you can. Thank you ❤️ tinyurl.com/3mn86td9

The specific allegations against Swalwell aside….this response reflects a very pervasive (but wrong) belief. Most sexual violence is relational and survivors keeping contact w/ their assailants is very common and not necessarily discrediting (esp when there’s a power imbalance)

At CVS, where the button you push to request that an employee unlock a cabinet is.... also locked behind said cabinet. ...I feel like this is a metaphor but I can't put my finger on it.

Still on a high from Friday's show so it seems like a perfect time to remind everyone of this phenomenally inventive arrangement Ollie Wride did of Radiohead's "Creep." All set to clips from classic 80s horror like an old-school music video for a soundtrack. 🙌 www.instagram.com/reels/DQe1lz...

Your timeline needs a baby goat in a coat.

Someone at DirecTV is absolutely ✨done✨ 😅 h/t to my eagle-eyed friend @thatkevincleary.bsky.social who snapped this photo in the wild

It's really hard to take good photos when you're dancing but what an absolute joy it was to see the one and only Ollie Wride at The Mint last night! One of my all-time favorite singers, whose music was the gateway drug to my love of #synthwave, bringing arena energy to an intimate venue. Just 🔥🔥🔥

Los Angeles Bluesky, I need your help. I just learned that on Saturday at the protest at the downtown Metropolitan Detention Center, a friend’s 18-year-old son was shot in the eye with a pepper ball by DHS, permanently blinding him. He needs justice. If you were there and saw anything, please… 1/5

World’s oldest tortoise caught in viral crypto death scam

Wake up, babe. The new Martin Shkreli just dropped:

You know how on April Fool's Day, you're extra careful about not having a knee-jerk reaction to something you read on the internet, and fact-check it first before responding or sharing? I wish we all did that, all of the time.

The death of a nearly blind refugee from Myanmar who was found on a Buffalo street in February — five days after Border Patrol agents left him at a doughnut shop — has been ruled a homicide, authorities said Wednesday. https://to.pbs.org/3NZGHsz

"Polygraph tests generally function to record signs of internal stress... “I had so much trauma,” he told The Tribune and ProPublica. “And so, certainly, when they asked me questions about the particular things that happened...it’s going to elicit a very strong emotional response.”

Social movement scholar here to comment on No King again. a 🧵: These protests are important b/c: 1.) as sustained image events, protests offer evidence of continued disapproval of the direction the country is going and disavowal of the country's leadership.

#NoKings except maybe John Waters 😂

.....I can't be the only one who sees it, right? 😅

The Singularity is upon us: Apple's AI summarized a text message that read "I'm still down to clown if you are" to.... "clown event still possible."

Holy shit we might have a cure for sickle cell anemia

Is "teleporting" slang for getting blackout drunk?

ICE detention deaths are now occurring at a rate of roughly one every four days. Three weeks ago that rate was one every six days. The pace is accelerating, and Congress has not launched a single investigation.
